The No. 1 Fall Makeup Trend -- And How to Pull It Off

Is gloss your go-to? Not sure you can pull off the bold new lip trends for fall? Let this be your guide

While summer was all about the soft pinks and bright corals, lips are getting a bold overhaul for the new season. Fall trends are calling for deep plums and rich mauves for your pout, and you'll find that there's a color for everyone -- even the Chapstick-wearer in the corner who dares to maybe wear tinted lip balm for a night out.

We get it: Bold lipstick can be intimidating. What if it bleeds, flakes, or worse -- leaves red stains on your man's crisp white shirt? Even those of us who've dabbled with the coral colors of summer may find these hues for fall pretty daring. But with all these gorgeous colors, it'd be a crying shame if we didn't partake. That's why we talked to Jessie Powers, Make Up For Ever National Educator, who filled us in on how to wear these fall lip trends. Turns out it's all about choosing the right hue for your skin tone and undertones.

So whether you're a lipstick newbie or bonafide beauty junkie, there's never been a better time to break out of your lip box and experiment. Here's how to do it right.

Great article, I really liked that you took the time to explain how important it is to find your true undertone and even explained how to find it. I love the colors of fall, so this was extra special to read about lip trends for this year. I myself, love the beiges and metalics, I'm a warm toned redhead, and this is my season to shine.
